Much as a digital showroom, SP-Arte 365 is a platform connecting galleries with art and design lovers. The user can browse through artists’ and artwork pages, sharing them on social media, and starting a chat with the gallery to request more information.

This time, Picks 365 was led by Karen Boyer, founder of Elements in Play, US art advisory firm.

At the age of 90, Julio Le Parc continues to make great paintings like this one that are both fresh and also refer to earlier works. Le Parc’s practice spans many decades and mediums, during which he has had considerable success with 2-dimensional and 3- dimensional works, and he is finally being recognized in the United States with recent shows at the Met Breuer in New York and the Pérez Art Museum in Miami.

Mira Schendel is a historically significant artist, who was born in Switzerland but emigrated to Brazil in 1949. She was an important member of the Latin American post-war art world, and her delicate, elegant works continue to resonate today. This painting is from her series of tempera and gold leaf paintings in which she created luminous forms on monochromatic backgrounds.

Sandra Cinto’s beautifully detailed works depict water, landscapes and other natural elements. Her pieces range in size from small works on paper to large installations covering an entire gallery’s walls. I find her work to have a serene, calming effect, and this painting is a perfect example of that.
